JAW DROPPING PERFORMANCE!
"Nicole brought the house down! Seriously, one woman, all alone on a stage with no scenery, no backdrop, nothing ... brought a standing ovation in the middle of the show. Phenomenal interpretation of the original. I cannot recommend this highly enough!"

Nothing wrong with being 40
"Nicole Scherzinger is quite aware that she is the star of the soho and that the rest depends on her. Lloyd Webber made a few acceptable changes even though I have missed the original scene at the men’s fashion store where Nora claims she enjoys paying. It is an excellent show which might also impress a younger audience with its technical effects."

Not The Sunset Blvd you may remember…
"Sunset Blvd was riveting from start to finish. The completely new and different take from the staging, choreography, minimal set and costumes were fantastically effective and mesmerizing. The talent was exceptional. Nicole Scherzinger “hit it out of the park” as did the entire cast of this amazing show. BRAVO! I want to see it again… "

Electrifying performance!
"The entire show was electrifying! While Nicole stood out as the star of the show, the entire cast all contributed to the full-packaged, well orchestrated performance. The production offered a unique perspective to the story, direction and music of the original show. The entire audience was thrilled and was obviously extremely pleased. There were standing ovations for Nicole’s two solo performances that lasted for 3 and 4 minutes respectively. The final curtain call by the entire cast was astounding. This was truly a different and lasting experience for all to see, especially for those who know the film and earlier versions of Sunset Blvd. A must see!"

Amazing from beginning to end
"I saw both productions of sunset , loved them which drew me to this one. This revival was so opposite from the original and it totally topped any show I had seen in years. The simplicity of the stage and costumes enhanced the experience. And of course the performance of Nicole Scherzinger will be forever remembered. The magnificence is still spinning in my mind."

A must see.
"I have seen 30+ Broadway shows and not one of them have I ever walked out thinking, “That is the best directing I have ever seen.” The cast, the staging, the lighting- EVERYTHING- was absolute perfection. If I could see any show once in my lifetime, it would be this one. It is innovative but still feels like a quintessential Broadway show. I understand the awards, now make me understand why it has to close."

Amazing vocalists!
"Amazing vocals & acting by the lead, Nicole Scherzinger! Easy to see why she won the Tony for best performer! She truly captured the disturbed character of. Norma Desmond. The male lead was also very strong by Tom Francis. Great, dramatic show. Very clear that Andrew Lloyd Webber was the genius behind the music! "

Ready for the Close-up
"The story line in Sunset Boulevard is dark but it draws you in. The staging is simple but SO well done and appropriate to the story. In the end you need time to take it all in and digest it because it is staged and performed so powerfully. The cast is extremely talented and Nicole Scherzinger is outstanding. It's worth going to see her two standout songs, delivered with power and emotion. In the end you ARE ready for her close-up."

It was so great, I saw it twice!
"I loved how Sunset Blvd was reimagined. I am a fan of the movie, I loved Glenn Close as Norma, however I was completely blown away by this interpretation of Sunset Blvd. Nicole deserved her Tony Award win. I was captivated by the use of the camera and how the artists used it to tell the story, especially Tom Francis. Bravo 👏🏾 👏🏾 👏🏾 "

Drenched in champagne and cynicism, Sunset Boulevard focuses the lens on the ambitions and frustrations of its characters and puts their intoxicating need for fame and adoration in stark close-up.
